Parenthetical citation



Within the context of a document composed as per some style guide, a parenthetical citation (or parenthetical notation) is a reference to a source that is placed (in parentheses) at the end of a sentence, but prior to the period/fullstop. It typically references a complete citation typically found elsewhere in the document (for example, in a document composed per the MLA style manual the citation may reference a work fully detailed in a Works Cited page).
